| - Pots is a good place for healthy Egyptian Street Food. It is further away from The Strip and the food serve here is Vegetarian and Vegan. There are a few items on the menu that is definitely worth trying. The Charred Baba Ghanoush ($6.99) is made with flamed eggplant mix with tahini and roasted pepper. It's delivered as a chilled eggplant dip serve with two freshly baked pita breads, and it's like having a little side snack. I've tried the Koshari ($9.99) which comes in a serving bowl filled with layers of rice, lentils, elbow pasta, chickpeas, tomato sauce, and caramelized fried onions. It's very tasty and so different from having Italian pasta. I can see why it's most renown as one of their popular Egyptian Street Food. The food I was most drawn to is the Cauliflower Shawarma ($6.99), I like this one the best. It has crispy cauliflower that's tossed in shawarma spices, drizzled with labna dressing and topped with arugula and the salata baladi includes tomato, cucumber, onions, and it's all serve in a pocket pita bread. The cauliflower shawarma is delicious. It has so much flavor, I just wish it comes in a bigger pita bread so I can have more of it.
Regarding the soup they offer, I've tried the Orzo Mixed Vegetables Soup ($5.99) which has seasonal vegetables, zucchini, carrot, yellow squash, and orzo pasta. I feel the broth is missing some seasoning, the soup didn't have any flavor. The orzo pasta taste like it isn't fully cooked and the vegetables in the soup are still crunchy. It's like having bland soup and it's not what I'm accustomed to. Most likely I will not order this soup and I gave my honest feedback to the owner. It's good seeing how very kind the owner is, she is so positive even when receiving comments about how food taste.
I tried a different order which is the Lentil Soup ($5.99), it's a creamy blend of cooked vegetables, there's a hint of tiny noodles that makes the soup thick, and it's topped with caramelized fried onions. I feel like I've found a new favorite because their Lentil Soup taste fantastic! They serve the soup fresh and piping hot, it's so hearty and creamy, there's amazing spices in the vegetables, and remarkably there are no potatoes. I love how the crunchy contrast of caramelized fried onions complements well with the soup.
They do offer complimentary drink: lemon and cucumber slice water which is refreshing, and the hibiscus tea looks like pomegranate juice and it taste similar to acai. I tried the Tahini Shake ($5.95) which is a coconut milk blend with medjool dates, cinnamon, chia seeds, tahini paste and shredded coconut. The Tahini Shake taste okay, it's very light but not as sweet as I anticipate. The only downside I notice is the paper straw. I understand how they are environment friendly but when it comes to drinking in a paper straw, it just doesn't work. The paper straw gets soaked and squished. I think plastic straw is a better choice as it's more durable in sipping and slurping drinks. Overall I feel the quality of service is great. The owner and staff are friendly, very attentive, humble and down-to-earth, and I like how they take really good care of their customer.
